the amazing kreskin

at the riviera. still uses a bunch of his original stage bits (e.g.
"think of 2 geometric shapes ... basic ones ... but not a square ... one
inside another ... how many people thought of a triangle inside a
circle?"). self-promoting. funny.

audience was mostly middle-aged whiteys ... definitely vegas local types
... oh, and robin leach was there with his not-quite fashion model GF.

face: $52. free w/ ticket subscription.

yet more TXT conversations w/ solid G

solid G: Rod stewart plays the night I arrive in vegas, but I don't get
in until 8ish.

b1: i wouldn't kut rod, but i'd go for free if someone gave me a
ticket. i'm still pissed about him ruining the small faces.

more TXT conversation w/ solid G

solid G: I don't mind a short review either, though I realize that's not
the focus. I do enjoy hearing about the crowd.

b1: yeah, i'll try it and see what happens ... i'm not really expecting
*anyone*, except for maybe you, your cousin and the grumbler to actually read
it.

TXT conversation with solid G

solid G: Suggestion for the kkk blog: describe the crowd at each show.

b1: not a bad idea ... i'll mull it ... it starts walking me toward
reviews, though.

bridge school concerts

bought and sold several tickets, including eight off of ebay with a $335 face value for $81.  after it was said and done and the smoke had cleared, i was paid $39 for my concert mate and me to see both bridge shows ... and even ended up eating two tickets.  i'll mark this as +$70 for face value and -$39 in the amount i paid.
